        I was expecting more from their offense. The game was pretty physical.

            It's a shame not all the Nations are sending out their best team possible.

            The NBA talent has really diversified over the years and the depth and quality has got to rank at an all-time high. It truly would have been such an exciting competition to watch, not saying it currently isn't, but imagine the likes of Dirk teaming with Schroder, a deep French team featuring the additions of Fournier, Mahinmi and Noah, a healthy Marc Gasol and Ibaka pairing with Pau and Mirotic to form a deadly front-court rotation, lottery draft picks Ben Simmons and Thon Maker representing Australia, or if Canada had qualified and featured a roster of Andrew Wiggins, Tristan Thompson, Corey Joseph, Jamal Murray, Trey Lyles, and Olynyk. And then of course, you got the USA A Team consisting of the big guns like LeBron, Curry, CP3, Westbrook, etc.

                What was the makeup of that team, since the country was loaded with some good talent the past 5 years

                        Forget all of it exactly but that last game they lost was a booger. Wiggins wasn't there, but Corey Joseph and Tristan Thompson were, I remember seeing Nash in the audience.

                        They blew it at the end and that it was it for them. Believe they got eliminated by Venezuela.

                        Mad i missed both women's games... too late to watch a replay right now with all the other games going on.

                          Got to say.... He gave US problems in 2014 FiBA. But why hasn't Miloš Teodosić been in the NBA yet? Or has he and I just missed it.

                              Some of those guys don't care about the NBA.

                              FIBA basketball is interesting to watch though, or at least these national team games.

                                Damn Australia is really surpassing my expectations.

                                Really looking forward to the match against the U.S

                                Hopefully it'll still be a close one in the second half
